Dance Ethnography and Global Perspectives presents the work of dance scholars whose professional fieldwork spans several continents and includes studies of the dance and movement systems of varied global communities.

"This edited volume focuses on dance ethnographic research of scholars from diverse backgrounds including religious studies, social and cultural anthropology, history, psychosocial work, and tourism. It presents context rich ethnographic studies from around the world and examines current theoretical and methodological issues generated from them. This timely volume is a valuable contribution to ethnographic studies in dance." - Catherine Foley, University of Limerick, Ireland
